Captain’s Log – Sat 3/29/25
Life here at The Grand Bahama Yacht Club is very easy going. The place is gorgeous, the people are so nice, there are many local restaurants to choose from and there is even a pet pig named Bacon. We almost don’t want to leave. We will definitely be back.
This is Bacon, wagging his tail like a puppy. He wouldn’t be so friendly if he knew exactly how much I love bacon!
There were a few boat chores to take care of. I had to defrost the fridge. If anyone knows how to keep a non-frost free style fridge/freezer from frosting over, let me know! I put the dinghy back up for travel, and thoroughly checked the engine over. The water tank was switched to the forward RO water tank as the water maker is due for it’s auto flush cycle Sunday morning. We can’t flush with city water that has chlorine in it. Not sure if it does here but better safe than sorry.
We spent the afternoon touring the Bahamas Maritime Museum. Interesting history of the original Lucayan people, the timeline through history from Columbus, Amerigo Vespucci, the pirates and the effects of slavery and the American Revolution on the islands. Much of this not the world’s finest moment.
The waters here are rich with treasure from many wrecks of Spanish Galleons and pirates. There are silver bars over a foot long! Must add under-water metal detector to my dive gear!!!
